It's the most common thing to lose with AA, when I take AA and bet, I even close my eyes so it doesn't hurt so much my elimination

More losses betting AA than winnings betting AA. Still waiting for it to turn around.

AA is a good idea, but you need to understand that this is poker

All poker players sometimes lose with AA, it's very hard to bear, especially in the last stages of a tournament when you have a real hope of going far.

Hello guys!

Who's never lost with pair of AA? I'm posting here an image of an MTT I'm playing at GGPoker... I get pissed when that happens.... Hehehehe....
Playing with pocket aces requires some strategies that will minimize the percentage of losses... a tip for this is to always be aggressive, whether raising or 3-bets... never slow play, Limp or Freeze Call.

Not possible, sorry. Can't say much more than that. If you were hoping for a person to say yes then they would be 100% lying.

AA is a great hand, but It's also like it has a curse or something, funny things happen when I get it.

Anyone who played at least thousands of hands, sometimes lost with AA...

A pair of aces can be beaten by a weaker hand if the flop, turn, or river brings good cards to another player.

To make it simple, the only time you are guaranteed a winner with AA is preflop. After that any hand can be the winning hand. So use the KISS principle and don’t overplay AA. But if you have the nuts on later streets, there are quite a few ways of playing them In order to maximize your profit.

I saw this was a long thread, but everyone is saying what I think. It's a great hand especially pre-flop but anything can happen after.

While pocket Aces (AA) are often considered the best starting hand in poker, they don't guarantee a win every time. I’ve had situations where I thought I was unbeatable, but an opponent caught a lucky draw. Still, it’s a hand you always want to play aggressively and take advantage of the odds.

I've lost A-A a lot of times, but that was the best hand.

Anyone who has played a thousand hands or more will probably have had AA a few times, and probably would lose about a third of those hands.

Losing with AA is disappointing, especially when your opponent has a weak starting hand. But when the opposite happens and you beat someone with a pair of AA, then you don't even care and you're very happy. That's poker, anything can happen.

Yesterday I saw that AA lost to QQ against AK. The table was removed.
It's part of the game. Just accept the frustration and move on, no matter how important the hand is.

I have heard through the grapevine that only Allah, Jesus and a Hindu gentleman have ever not have their aces cracked. As for me its been about 80% of the time overall .
IIRC aces indeed have around 80% equity against any hand preflop, having the least amount of equity (which is still around 78%, don't get me wrong) against medium suited connectors.
